Nicola Sturgeon & Grant Shapps on the lockdown continuing for 'at least' three weeks

The First Minister of Scotland and the Transport Secretary on the impact of the lockdown

The government in Westminster says we are starting to see a flattening in the curve. But so far ministers are resisting pressure to put a date on when lockdown measures might begin to be relaxed. Next week, the First Minister Nicola Sturgeon says she will "set out the decision-making framework" for when measures may change in Scotland.

In Westminster, we speak to Transport Secretary Grant Shapps on how ministers will find a balance between saving lives from the virus, and minimising public health and economic impacts due to the lockdown.
